What is the Southeastern Wisconsin Assessment Collaborative (SEWAC) ?
Through a grant from the Joyce Foundation, Alverno College was able to
develop a program with
public school districts in the metropolitan Milwaukee area, as well as the
Catholic and Lutheran schools in the area.
The goals of the collaborative are to:
- Create a multi-district collaborative focused on performance assessment as a
support to student learning
- Create a working infrastructure for coordination of efforts within and
across districts, with a special emphasis on the design and validation of
performance assessments, the development of scoring guides and the training
of teachers
- Design an educational campaign to develop broad and deep community
understanding of the purposes of education and appropriate uses of varied
forms of assessment to support learning and document student learning.
